Medicals

 Gary and I will be needing to update our medical form since the previous one will be close to expiring.   But one of the wonderful things is that the doctor's office has a notary on hand so one less worry.  I just hate exams and blood work but it will be worth it for these two little tappers.

Currently we have 40 documents waiting to be notarized @ $20 per document ($800.00) :'o( 
Once each document  is double checked and reviewed we will be ready for apostilles for a grand total of 58 documents @ $20 per document (1,600).  :'0(((((  With it being so many documents and the fear of them getting lost in the mail we decided we would travel to our State's Commission's Office  for apostilles.  SO 264 miles there and another 264 back.  Roughly a 5 to 6 hour trip and with rain most of the week.  When we traveled to Arkansas this pass  Friday we got  caught in a really bad storm and had to pull off the road till the storm cleared.  It seems every trip we have made during this adoption it has rain.  

We'll be getting up early and arrive shortly after lunch.  Next check in a hotel overnight and head back the following day.  Once home we have completed paper chase. 
Our Paper Baby is ready to be send.

Full of emotions today

I am get back to blogging our journey this week and share some photos and our journey. Today I found myself missing our new little ones.  I wonder if they know we are coming back for the both of them.  Many tears as we walked out the door and said our goodbyes. This adoption has been a hard one for many reasons.  Updating documents and not knowing which child we were meant to adopt.  Honestly I just did not know what to expect once we were there. I knew this time deep inside I feel nervous and also excited.  With prior adoptions things felt so much differently than this one.  Maybe because this journey has been also a year in waiting. When we first met Barbara in hopped a little girl full of life and smiles.  As I watched her I noticed she was as nervous as I was.  But shortly we got to know one another.  I knew then inside as she sat across from us that this was our child, our daughter.. I felt inside love for a child I only met for...

One day closer to coming home

After arriving in Kiev we went right to bed.  Between moving quickly from one plane to another then a 30 minute ride to our hotel. With the time difference we had to rest once arriving.  Being up over 26 hours we were exhausted. Prior to leaving the US I had to visit my doctor.  Not any good news to share.  Only some complications had arrised.  Staying with Jake a week at the hospital and him checking out the day prior I had to have another check up myself.  Unfortunately my cancer has spread.  Problems now with blood pressure, thyroid disease and diabetes. Being placed on news meds prior to travel is not working out to well. It was awful arriving in Kiev sitting in a wheel chair.  Niko met us and drove us to get Greyson's birth records.  It was a 4 hour drive there n back   We waited 3 hours to have it printed. Greyson's birth Certificate So much left to do. Tomorrow we head to Mauripol.
